Officium Et Civitas

The first two Chinese words “敬業” suggest the respect for one’s professional knowledge; they encompass the requirement to combine academic professionalism and career ethics as called for in the modern era. The last two words “樂群” emphasise the relationship between the individual and society; they encourage personal growth and development, and advocate group spirit and the need to care for society. Officium et Civitas is the Latin translation of the motto. Officium captures the rich connotations of the word “業” and denotes a high-minded sense of duty, including high office, with a very positive moral connotation. Civitas refers to both town/city and “union of citizens (commonwealth)”, a spirit embraced by the word “群”, which is most appropriate for City University. Vision

Campus Map The University Introduction

Introduction

CityU offers professional education that prepares its students for the challenges and exciting opportunities opening up in Hong Kong, the Asia-Pacific region and throughout the world in business, science and engineering, energy and environment, law, creative media and social sciences. Through its extensive links with relevant industries, CityU provides real-life opportunities for students to work with and learn from professionals in the workplace, from bachelor degrees and postgraduate studies to associate degrees and continuing education.

At CityU, we strive to nurture well-rounded graduates, who are competent professionals, critical thinkers and life-long learners equipped to cope with a globalised work environment and positioned to capitalise on our extensive links to mainland China. Our approach to education is heavily influenced by the philosophy of “whole-person development”, a contemporary theory about learning and development that strongly resembles traditional Chinese educational philosophy. Subject to particular focus are the spiritual, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic elements of education, coupled with the special attention paid to the emotional and career development aspects typical to Western educational philosophies.

Our teachers are recruited from around the world, each an expert in their profession. Employing interactive, IT-based teaching methodologies, students acquire a first-rate grounding in their chosen subjects and the life-long learning skills needed for the real world.

CityU offers state-of-the-art learning, teaching and research facilities in a high-technology environment to create an ambiance that encourages intellectual curiosity, social interaction, self- expression and mutual support.

CityU has achieved phenomenal growth since its establishment in 1984. To date, it has a student population of 26,000 enrolled in more than 140 programmes at the associate degree, undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Academic Organisation The three Colleges: Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, Science and Engineering, and the School of Creative Media and School of Law offer bachelors degree and postgraduate programmes. The newly established School of Energy and Environment currently offers postgraduate degree programmes.

The Chow Yei Ching School of Graduate Studies strengthens the operation and development of all postgraduate programmes and fosters an ambiance for graduate studies.

The School of Creative Media, the Division of Building Science and Technology and the Community College of City University run associate degree programmes. The School of Continuing and Professional Education helps fulfil the University’s role as a centre for life-long education by providing continuing educational opportunities for the community through self- financing degree, certificate and short programmes.

P Pass: “Pass” in a pass-fail course. Courses to be graded on a pass-fail basis for a programme are specifically identified under the programme in the course catalogue.

Operational Grades

IP In Progress An IP grade is shown where students will register in subsequent Semesters to complete the assessment of the course.

I Incomplete A grade of incomplete may be granted (1) where there are extenuating circumstances that have prevented a student from completing required work, or attending the examination; (2) at the discretion of the Assessment Panel. Where an “I” grade is assigned, the Assessment Panel will approve a schedule for the completion of work, or a supplementary examination. An “I” grade will be converted into a “F” grade four weeks after the “I” grade is first reported, unless an alternative grade has been assigned.

S Dissertation Submitted In a dissertation-type course, an S grade is assigned by the Course Examiner when a student’s dissertation has been submitted for assessment.

X Assigned when a student is permitted to drop the course after the normal drop date.

72 73 Academic Regulations Academic Regulations

Operational Grades

AU Audit An audited grade is assigned when an auditing student has completed the conditions established at registration as an auditor. No assessment is made or grade awarded for auditing.

8.2 Students assigned a grade of D or better, or a Pass grade in a pass-fail course, earn credit units for the course. Grades of F, IP, I, S, X or AU do not earn credit units. 8.3 Grades of P, I, IP, S, X and AU are not counted in the calculation of a student’s CGPA. Grades of F are counted, unless the fail is recovered under AR11.3.

8.4 Grades of P, I, IP, S, X and AU are not counted in the calculation of a student’s SGPA.

9. Illness or other Circumstances Affecting Assessment If students wish the University to take into account illness or some other extenuating circumstances that affected their performance in an examination, or ability to attend an examination, or to complete coursework, they must refer the circumstances of the case to the relevant Course Examiner in writing, within five days of the scheduled date for students to complete the assessment of the course.

10. Review of Course Grades Informal Resolution

10.1 Where a student believes that there may have been: a miscalculation of marks; data errors; extenuating circumstances affecting his/her performance; or wishes to resolve other issues relating to course grades, the student should first contact the Course Examiner and the relevant staff member responsible for the assessment with a view to resolving the matter informally.

10.2 If a revision to the student’s course grade is considered necessary, the Course Examiner should make a recommendation to amend the grade and seek approval through the Chair of the Assessment Panel.

10.3 If the student’s concerns regarding course grades cannot be resolved by informal means, the student may seek resolution via the formal procedures outlined below.

Formal Procedures for Review

10.4 Formal requests for review of course grades may be made only if the assessment was not conducted in accordance with the Academic Regulations or with the arrangements prescribed for the course. Disagreement with the academic judgment of Course Examiners does not constitute valid grounds for review.

10.5 Any request for review of course grades must be made in writing to the Head of Department offering the course within one month of the announcement of grades by the Academic Regulations and Records Office. The written application must:

74 75 Academic Regulations Academic Regulations

(i) describe the informal actions taken to resolve the issue; (ii) state the grounds on which the request for review is made; (iii) include a description of the relevant facts; and (iv) provide supporting evidence.

10.6 When considering a formal request for review of course grade, the Head of Department may form a Departmental Review Committee to investigate the case. Membership of a Departmental Review Committee includes the Head (or nominee) as Chair and at least two other academic staff not involved in the teaching of the course under review. Where the student is from another programme department, the Departmental Review Committee may include the Head (or nominee) of the student’s programme department. The Departmental Review Committee may interview the student and staff members concerned, arrange for an independent assessment of the student’s work, or seek advice from an external assessor. The Committee should record its proceedings and resolutions.

10.7 If the Committee decides to recommend amendment of the course grade, endorsement through the Chair of the Assessment Panel is required. The decision will be communicated in writing to the student by the Head of Department with a brief statement of the reasons for the decision. All reviews should be handled expeditiously by the parties concerned. A reply should be sent to the student no later than one month upon receipt of the formal request for review.

10.8 Formal requests for review of course grades should normally be resolved at the departmental level. If a student is not satisfied that his/her case has been dealt with appropriately at the departmental level, the student can convey his/her concern directly in writing to the College Dean. The Dean will adjudicate the case and communicate the decision to the student in writing. The decision of the Dean is final. For courses offered by the School of Creative Media, School of Law, Chinese Civilisation Centre and the English Language Centre, students should convey their concern to the Associate Provost (Academic Planning and Undergraduate Education) or the Dean of Graduate Studies as appropriate whose decision is final.

11. Students’ Academic Progress and Academic Standing Academic Standing

11.1 Academic standing provides an indicator of the student’s academic progress and identifies students in academic difficulty needing academic advising and extra help. The four levels of academic standing are defined as follows:

Standing Definitions

Good Standing Students are making satisfactory academic progress.

Academic Warning Students’ most recent academic performance has been unsatisfactory, or their overall academic average is below minimum requirements. Students on warning are asked to seek academic advice from their programme advisor.

74 75 Academic Regulations Academic Regulations

Standing Definitions

Probation Students’ most recent academic performance has been extremely unsatisfactory, or their overall academic average has continued to be below the minimum requirements for graduation. Students on Probation will be assigned an academic advisor by their programme department, and will not be permitted to register in courses in the following semester without the approval of the academic advisor. The programme department may also require students on Probation to take a reduced credit unit load in the semester.

Academic Suspension Students who cannot benefit from course registration in the next semester may be suspended for an approved period of not less than one semester. Academic Suspension is designed to provide students with an opportunity to resolve the problems that are preventing them making academic progress. On return from their suspension, students may be given the opportunity for one additional course repeat in each failed course to recover failure(s).

Operational Standing

Review A temporary status indicating that a student’s performance may require a change of academic standing and has been referred to the student’s department.

11.2 An academic standing decision is made for all students at the end of each semester, in accordance with rules adopted by Senate and published by the University.

Repeating Courses to Improve Grades

11.3 Except for courses covered by 11.4, undergraduate students may repeat a course, or an equivalent course, to recover a failure or to improve a course grade of D. Students in taught postgraduate programmes may repeat a course, or equivalent course, to recover a failure or to improve a course grade of C or below. After the first attempt, only two repeat attempts are permitted. Course grades for all attempts will appear on the student’s transcript, but only the final grade earned will be included in the calculation ofthe student’s CGPA.

11.4 Courses may be designated ‘dissertation-type’ courses in the course catalogue. For dissertation-type courses, the catalogue will specify the normal duration for course registration and the maximum duration for course registration. Students are not permitted to repeat a dissertation-type course.

Academic Honours

11.5 At the end of each semester, or for part-time students on the completion of two semesters, GPAs for undergraduate students are calculated. Where a student over that period has (1)

76 77 Academic Regulations Academic Regulations

earned twelve credit units or more, (2) achieved a GPA of 3.7 or greater, and (3) not failed any course, the student is placed on the Dean’s List.

11.6 Undergraduate students on a combined mode of study will have their GPAs calculated at the end of each semester or upon the completion of two semesters, as appropriate. When a student over that period has (1) earned twelve credit units or more, (2) achieved a GPA of 3.7 or greater, and (3) not failed any course, the student is placed on the Dean’s List.

12. Conferment and Classification of Awards Requirements for University Awards

12.1 To be granted an award of the University, students must successfully complete a programme of the University, including specific requirements of the named award for which they are registered, general University requirements, and college/school requirements, if any. The requirements for awards are set out in the University website for each programme.

12.2 Credit units earned for courses at a level below the programme level are not normally counted toward requirements for an award. 12.3 Where two or more courses are defined as exclusive for a programme by the programme department, the credit units earned for only one of the courses will count toward the requirements for the award. 12.4 Where the normal course requirements of a programme cannot be completed, a “substitute” course may be approved by the programme department for a student, replacing the required course. 12.5 The University may allow credit units earned by students registered for a particular programme of the University to be counted toward the requirements of another programme for which they register. 12.6 The University may allow exemption from courses required for an award of the University. Credit units toward the award are not given when an exemption is granted. 12.7 Students may be granted an undergraduate award only if they have achieved a CGPA of 1.70 or above. 12.8 Students may be granted a postgraduate award only if they have achieved a CGPA of 2.00 or above. 12.9 Where a programme is designed to enable students to gain an intermediate award, students who meet the requirements for the intermediate award and who do not intend to complete the full programme may apply in writing to the University for conferment of the award. Such applications must be received within one calendar year of the student’s withdrawal from the programme. 12.10 Students completing the requirements for an award graduate on the next following graduation date.

Classification ofAwards

12.11 The University grants awards with classifications as follows:

76 77 Academic Regulations Academic Regulations

Award Classification

Diplomas/Certificates/ Distinction Higher Diplomas/Associate Credit Degrees Pass

Bachelor’s Degrees First Class Honours Upper Second Class Honours Lower Second Class Honours Third Class Honours Pass (without Honours)

Postgraduate Certificates/ Distinction Diplomas/Master’s Degrees Credit Pass

12.12 University awards are classified by the relevant College/School Examination Board, that makes a recommendation to Senate for the conferment of awards. 12.13 College/School Examination Boards classify awards with regard to, but not necessarily in strict conformity with, a student’s CGPA.

13. Termination of Studies 13.1 Where the student’s record indicates that the student may have difficulty successfully completing the requirements for an award, the relevant College/School Examination Board is informed. Where the Board is satisfied that the student cannot reasonably expect to complete the award, the Board will terminate the student’s studies. 13.2 After termination of studies, students may not continue their studies at the University without readmission, with readmission to any programme no earlier than one academic year after the student’s termination.

14. Review of Examination Board Decisions Informal Resolution

14.1 Where a student is concerned that there might be data errors or that there were extenuating circumstances affecting his/her overall academic performance that have a bearing on the academic standing and award decisions made by the Examination Board, the student should attempt to resolve the matter informally by contacting the Programme Leader, Head of the Programme Department, or other relevant academic staff. 14.2 If the Head of Department wishes to recommend an amendment to the student’s academic standing or award classification, this recommendation should be forwarded through the Chairman of the Examination Board for approval. Formal Procedures for Review

14.3 Formal requests for review of an Examination Board’s decision may be made only on the basis of procedural defects affecting the Board’s decision. The academic judgment

78 79 Academic Regulations Academic Regulations

of the Examination Board, having acted in conformity with the University’s policies and guidelines on assessment, shall not be subject to appeal. 14.4 If the student’s concerns regarding the Examination Board’s decision cannot be resolved satisfactorily via informal means, the student may lodge a formal request for review in writing to the College Dean within one month of the publication of the Examination Board’s decision by the University. The application must: (i) describe the informal actions taken to resolve the issue; (ii) state the grounds on which the request for review is made; (iii) include a description of the relevant facts; and (iv) provide supporting evidence.

14.5 Upon receipt of the formal request for review, the College Dean will review and decide on the case. If deemed necessary, the Dean may form a College Review Committee to investigate the case. Membership of a College Review Committee includes the Head (or nominee) of the student’s programme department and another Head of Department not associated with the student’s programme. The College Review Committee will decide on the procedures it will follow in adjudicating the case. The Committee should record its proceedings and resolutions. 14.6 If the College Review Committee decides to recommend changes to the student’s academic standing or award classification, endorsement through the Chair of the Examination Board is required. The decision on the review will be communicated in writing to the student with a brief statement of the reasons for the decision. All reviews should be handled expeditiously by the parties concerned. A reply should be sent to the student no later than one month upon receipt of the formal request for review. 14.7 The decision of the Dean or the College Review Committee, if formed, is final. For the School of Law and School of Creative Media, formal requests for review of Examination Board decisions should be directed to the Associate Provost (Academic Planning and Undergraduate Education) or the Dean of Graduate Studies as appropriate whose decision is final.

96 97 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Introduction The University Senate has approved Principles, Policies, and Good Practices and Guidelines (the 3 Ps) for Quality Education. The 3 Ps provide a framework for quality assurance of academic programmes, teaching, learning and assessment of students, and for benchmarking against international standards.

I. Principles for Quality Education 1. City University of Hong Kong is committed to the provision of a high-quality education and learning experience for all its students.

2. The University believes that education quality and quality assurance are an institutional and collective responsibility. This responsibility is implemented through the University’s system of governance, and through maintaining a culture of quality among staff and students.

3. The University is committed to the continual development, recognition and reward of quality in all aspects of staffs’ activity in the provision of high-quality education at the University.

4. The University ensures that the awards granted by the University Senate are equivalent in standard to similar awards granted by other internationally recognised universities.

5. The University recognises an obligation to be accountable to stakeholders, including the community that funds the University.

II. Policies for Quality Education

Section A — Roles and Responsibilities Governance

1. Under the City University of Hong Kong Ordinance, the Senate of the University is required to “plan, develop, and maintain the academic programmes offered by the University”, “direct and regulate the teaching …… at the University”, and “decide on the award of degrees and other academic awards of the University”.

2. In undertaking these functions, Senate relies on the Quality Assurance Committee, the Academic Policy Committee and the Board of Graduate Studies to provide advice on policies and plans relating to the academic life of the University.

3. The day-to-day task of assuring the quality of education and maintaining academic standards at CityU falls to the “Faculties and equivalent bodies” and “Departments and equivalent bodies”, established by Council, on Senate’s recommendation. Under their statutes, the academic boards of faculties/equivalent bodies have the duty to advise Senate, the Dean (or equivalent) and Heads of Departments (or equivalent) “on all matters pertaining to the planning, development, implementation and monitoring of the academic work of the Faculty”,

98 99 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

and “reporting thereon annually” to Senate (in the case of postgraduate programmes through the Board of Graduate Studies).

4. Under their statutes, the work of faculties/schools and departments should be undertaken “within the policies, procedures and priorities established by Senate”. Notwithstanding its delegation of authority, Senate is available to all members and is the final authority for the resolution of disagreements.

A Quality Culture

5. The University has charged the Quality Assurance Committee with the responsibility to promote quality assurance, and to foster a culture of quality teaching and learning at the University.

6. The University has established Teaching Excellence Awards to promote good teaching and reward our best teachers.

7. The University expects all staff and students to participate in, and feel ownership of, policies and processes for the assurance of quality and academic standards.

8. The University supports a self critical and reflective approach to its work, and welcomes and responds appropriately to criticism, including criticism from students and other stakeholders.

9. The University’s framework of governance provides for academic staff a wide range of opportunities to participate in the academic management of the University. Moreover, in their areas of expertise, the University expects academic staff to exercise the maximum discretion and professional autonomy to further educational goals.

10. Students are also included as members of key University committees, and are encouraged to participate in the work of departments and faculties. The University calls on students to make an active contribution to the improvement of education quality on their own behalf and on behalf of the University.

Section B — Arrangements for Quality Assurance and Maintaining Academic Standards 1. Arrangements and activities to maintain and improve education quality and academic standards should be characterised by:

(a) A forward-looking view, oriented to the task of improving education quality.

(b) Coverage of all aspects of students’ educational experience.

(d) Regular monitoring and evaluation of teaching and learning quality within formal systems capable of operating independently of particular individuals.

(e) Recognition of the importance of feedback from ‘stakeholders’ (e.g. students, employers, professional bodies).

(f) Recognition of the importance of external benchmarks in establishing the quality of teaching and learning and of academic standards.

98 99 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

(g) Establishment of mechanisms to identify and disseminate examples of good professional practice.

(h) Provision of the facilities and resources necessary to support activities to enhance and improve the quality of teaching and learning.

2. Arrangements to maintain and enhance education quality should be subject to regular review and periodic audit to ensure their continued effectiveness.

Section C — Academic Planning, and Curriculum Development Senate’s Responsibility

1. Senate exercises its responsibilities for academic planning and the development of the curriculum by reserving key decisions for Senate policies, consideration and delegating authority to faculties and departments. The decisions reserved for Senate consideration are:

(a) Approval of the titles in English and Chinese of all degrees and awards of the University.

(b) Approval of general regulations for the conferment of academic awards.

(c) Approval of academic plans on the basis of recommendations from the Academic Policy Committee (APC), including plans for the introduction or discontinuation of programmes of study, and student intakes and enrolment in academic programmes.

2. In relation to these decisions, Senate seeks the advice of the Board of Graduate Studies, with respect to postgraduate academic programmes.

3. Faculty boards/equivalent bodies have the authority to manage the curriculum of academic programmes, within the framework of Senate policies, regulations, guidelines, and approved academic plans, making further delegation of this authority to departments/equivalent bodies, as appropriate.

Approval of Academic Plans

4. In making recommendations to Senate for the academic development of the University and the management of student numbers, Academic Policy Committee receives proposals for academic developments and student numbers from faculties and equivalent bodies, and acts on the advice of the Board of Graduate Studies. APC considers these proposals in the light of the broad criteria agreed by Senate. (Refer to Section A—Criteria for Academic Planning, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

Process for Curriculum Development

5. The details of arrangements for curriculum design, development and approval are matters for the relevant faculty to decide. However faculty boards exercising the delegated authority of Senate should establish arrangements for curriculum development that have the following features:

(a) Where changes or new developments under consideration go beyond the authority of individual academic staff delivering courses, proposals should be subject to scrutiny by colleagues, and students should be consulted.

100 101 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

(b) Where changes may have a significant impact on learning outcomes or academic standards, these changes should be subject to review by members of the University not directly involved with the academic programme, and the views of external experts, professional bodies, former students, and employers should be actively sought and taken into account.

(d) Proposals for changes, and approved changes, should be documented clearly, so that stakeholders are informed of proposals that affect them, and the University catalogue of courses and programmes can be maintained accurately.

(e) To ensure that the quality and standards of educational programmes offered through the self-financing mode are the same as those receiving funding support through the University Grants Committee, the process for curriculum development, approval and management should be the same for both types of programmes.

Approval of Changes to the Curriculum

6. The delegation of Senate authority over the curriculum of academic programmes is made on the understanding that faculties and equivalent bodies will ensure that:

(a) The structure of programmes is consistent with the academic regulations.

(b) The assignment of credit units to student work is consistent with University standards.

(c) The academic standard of programmes is appropriate, given the level of the award, and is comparable with the academic standard of similar programmes elsewhere.

(d) The curriculum of courses and programmes is consistent with the University’s overall objectives for students’ education.

(e) Teaching, learning and assessment strategies have been given appropriate attention, and are aligned to the intended learning outcomes of courses and programmes.

(f) Resources to deliver programmes and courses are adequate.

(g) Where necessary, arrangements for the transition of students to new curriculum requirements have been made.

Section D — Assuring and Improving the Quality of Education 1. In discharging its responsibility for the University’s academic programmes, Senate relies on departments to maintain and improve the quality of the educational provision for which they are responsible. Senate has adopted general guidelines for departmental quality assurance, under which departments are asked to operate. (Refer to Section B—Departmental Activities to Assure and Improve the Quality of Education, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

2. Departments should ensure that new, full-time academic staff, and any teaching or research support staff, e.g. teaching assistants, research assistants, who are assigned significant teaching duties, have received an adequate orientation to their teaching role at City University.

100 101 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

3. Departments are asked to pay particular attention to the work of part-time teachers to ensure that the quality of instruction delivered by part-time staff is comparable to that of full-time staff in the University. In this regard, Departments should make reference to the Code of Good Practice for part-time teaching approved by the Senate. (Refer to Section C—Code of Good Practice for Part-time Teaching, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

4. Departments are required to report annually to the relevant faculty board (or equivalent body) on the courses and programmes for which they are responsible.

Section E — The Evaluation of Teaching 1. Faculties and equivalent bodies are required to evaluate the teaching of their staff on an individual basis. The primary purpose of any teaching evaluation scheme should be to improve teaching.

2. Faculties are responsible for devising, implementing and maintaining their own teaching evaluation schemes, including determining who should initiate evaluations, who should receive the results, how often evaluations should occur, how they should be administered, and what follow-up procedures will result from the evaluation outcomes.

3. Evaluation schemes should provide the most valid (accurate), reliable (consistent), comprehensive and credible information on the quality of an individual’s teaching performance consistent with the costs of the scheme, where costs include the time and effort of both students and teachers.

4. Where evaluation of teaching is undertaken as part of a summative assessment of performance, in addition to student feedback, evidence must be included from other appropriate sources such as peer review, individual reflection, and expert observation.

5. Faculty schemes for teaching evaluation should be consistent with the guidelines adopted by Senate. (Refer to Section D—Guidelines for the Evaluation of Teaching, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

Section F — Student Assessment and Academic Standards Purpose of Student Assessment

1. Assessment is the crucial link between effective teaching, student learning and educational standards. It is important to ensure that assessment tasks are aligned to intended learning outcomes identified for courses and programmes.

2. While allowing the necessary professional freedom to decide precisely when and how assessments should be conducted, the guidelines agreed by Senate should be taken into account. (Refer to Section E—Guidelines for Student Assessment, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

Course Examiners

3. Heads of Department, or equivalent bodies, should appoint a Course Examiner for each course to be assessed by the Department. The Course Examiner is responsible for coordinating the assessment of course outcomes, recommending course grades to the relevant Assessment Panel, and ensuring that the Assessment Panel has the necessary information about the assessment criteria of the course.

102 103 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Assessment Panels

4. Heads of Department should establish an Assessment Panel for courses offered by the Department. Assessment Panels are chaired by the Head of Department, must include the Course Examiner for courses being considered, and may include members of the department associated with the course. No course may be considered by more than one Assessment Panel. The duties of Assessment Panels are:

(a) To maintain the academic standard of assessment in courses for which the Panel is responsible.

(b) To determine the final grades for students in courses, and report them to the Head of Academic Regulations and Records Office.

(c) To consider requests from students that illness, or other circumstances be taken into account in setting students’ grades.

Grading and Grade Distributions

5. Course grades should be assigned on the basis of the “grade descriptions” provided in the Academic Regulations.

6. Course Examiners and Assessment Panels should take into account Senate guidelines when assigning student grades. (Refer to Section F—Guidelines for Assigning Course Grades, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

Benchmarking against International Standards

7. In exercising their duty to maintain academic standards in courses for which they are responsible, Assessment Panels should have reference to the international norms for similar courses at other internationally recognised universities. The arrangements adopted by departments to assure the University that the relevant standard is being maintained should conform to the following principles.

(a) Assessment instruments and students’ assessed work should be reviewed across a sufficiently wide range of courses, and with sufficient regularity, to provide a credible assurance that academic standards are being maintained by the department.

(b) Review of assessment should cover the academic level of the course syllabus, the full range of assessment activities in the course, and the extent to which assessment in a course is adequately aligned to the learning outcomes identified for the course.

(c) Review of assessment instruments and students’ assessed work should benefit from the input of qualified peers, with the necessary experience of similar work in universities with an international reputation. (Refer to Section G—Guidelines for External Academic Advisors, Good Practices and Guidelines for Quality Education)

(d) Arrangements for the review of assessment in a course in a department should be clearly documented, and approved by the relevant faculty board.

4. Academic Merit — Consistency with the professional and research priorities of staff and contribution to the University’s ability to enter emerging academic areas.

5. Quality of Outcomes — Ability of units to facilitate sound learning outcomes and to encourage the whole person development of students.

6. Adjustment Problems — Contribution to maintaining minimum effective size and full use of the existing staff establishment.

104 105 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Section B — Departmental Activities to Assure and Improve the Quality of Education 1. Departments are asked to assure and improve the quality of education across the following areas of responsibility:

(a) Design and implementation of the academic curriculum for discipline areas and professional specialisms under the management of the department, including the approach to teaching and learning, the assessment of students, and maintenance of academic standards.

(b) Design and implementation of an out-of-class educational experience for the department’s students, including: orientation; mentoring; developmental and skill-building activities; and placement.

2. Departments are asked to establish for these areas of responsibility a mechanism for maintaining and assuring quality that has the following features:

(a) Forums for academic staff to engage in discussion about the design and implementation of educational programmes in the department, encouraging a sense of collective responsibility for quality, innovation and out-of-the-box thinking, and the use of the department’s own professional resources to support the development of staff in their teaching role.

(b) Peer review of the design and implementation of academic programmes by academics and practitioners, to assist in the calibration of students’ grades and academic standards against international norms, the transmission of good practice, and benchmarking.

(d) Assessment of learning outcomes as a means to evaluate and improve the department’s performance.

(e) An orientation to improvement by the development of concrete action plans, with a well- identified assignment of responsibility and timelines, and a commitment to the evaluation of the impact of actions taken.

(f) Encouraging research and publications on teaching and learning.

3. Departments should report annually to their faculty board/equivalent body on the courses and programmes under their responsibility, and on their implementation of systems to assure and improve quality and academic standards.

Section C — Code of Good Practice for Part-time Teaching To ensure that the quality of instruction delivered by part-time staff is comparable to that of full- time staff in the University, Senate has adopted the following Code of Good Practice for Part-time Teaching to provide a standard for reference, and a basis for action to enhance the performance and quality of part-time teaching:

1. The recruitment standards in terms of qualifications and experience required for a part-time teaching position should as far as possible be identical to that required for a full-time position.

104 105 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

2. The employment of part-time teachers should be confirmed as soon as possible after a decision to hire a person has been made to enable that person to use University facilities, e.g. Library and Computing Services Centre, for the preparation of materials before starting teaching. Furthermore, honoraria payable for part-time teaching must be handled expeditiously.

3. A senior staff member should be appointed by each department to oversee all part-time teaching matters and to ensure that part-time teaching is of a high quality. Formal recognition for this job should be reflected in the workload of the staff member.

4. Handbooks or other material containing practical information at both University and departmental levels should be made available by departments to part-time teachers.

5. Briefing(s) shouldbe conducted for part-time teachers about their role and duties, course aims and learning outcomes, assessment policy and guidelines, teaching evaluation, background of students, etc.

6. Part-time teachers should be invited as far as possible to curriculum development activities, Programme Committee meetings, and in social departmental/University functions, etc. to enhance their sense of commitment to part-time teaching.

7. Part-time teachers should be invited to participate in staff development workshops organised in the University, whenever necessary. These workshops should be held at a convenient time for part-time teachers who should be paid an additional honorarium for their attendance.

8. Adequate space (working space and lockers) and other facilities including clerical support, stationery, photocopy service, etc. should be provided for part-time teachers.

9. Teaching evaluation should be conducted for part-time teachers in accordance with Senate policy, as for full-time teachers, through student evaluation of teaching, peer review or other means. Departmental reports to the faculty board should contain a section reporting specifically on part-time teaching and on any deviations from this Code of Good Practice.

Section D — Guidelines for the Evaluation of Teaching General

1. Teaching evaluation schemes should include student feedback as a substantial, primary element in the process.

2. An individual’s teaching should be judged in context – the type and purpose of the teaching, the background of the students, the resources available, the nature of the courses, etc.

3. Teaching evaluation data should cover a representative sample of an individual’s teaching activities, for example to include a variety of student groups and types of activity – lecture, tutorial, project supervision, etc.

4. Evaluation schemes should clearly separate questions relating to an individual’s performance from questions relating to the contributions of others involved in the course. For example, the teacher to be evaluated might not be responsible for the syllabus, the assessment design, etc.

106 107 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Evaluation Instruments

5. Evaluation instruments should be based on recognised good practice, teaching-learning theory and accepted research findings.

6. Evaluation by students for the purpose of judging and assessing teaching must include a customised version of the Teaching Feedback Questionnaire.

7. Evaluation instruments to be used with students should have accompanying Chinese translation where this will increase the validity of the data collected.

8. Each evaluation instrument should be designed for a specific audience and should only include items for which this audience is capable of giving informed responses.

9. Evaluation instruments should include sufficient data to allow the teaching context tobe readily identified e.g. FT/PT students, core/service courses, etc.

Summative Evaluation and Personnel Decisions

10. Where the results of teaching evaluations are to be incorporated into decision-making related to career progression, the differences between information collected from formative and summative evaluations must be taken into account, since information obtained for the sole purpose of improving teaching, and often collected before that teaching is complete, may be inappropriate to consider when making judgments.

11. Those entrusted with using the information from teaching evaluations for decision-making related to career progression should be skilled in interpreting and drawing together the different sources of information.

Administration

12. The administration of teaching evaluation should follow adequate, standardised procedures in order to protect the validity of the information obtained.

13. Evaluation schemes should include clear guidelines as to who may initiate an evaluation and for what purposes. In all cases the staff member being evaluated must be fully consulted.

14. Evaluation schemes must include clear rules governing the confidentiality of evaluation information and reports. This is particularly the case, where the emphasis is on development and improvement (Formative Evaluation Tools for example).

15. Faculties must provide feedback on the outcomes of evaluations to those involved in providing evaluation data.

16. Teaching evaluation schemes must be documented and provided to the Quality Assurance Committee for information.

17. Provisions should exist for regular review of College/Faculty/School evaluation schemes and of the institution’s evaluation procedures.

106 107 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Section E — Guidelines for Student Assessment Assessment Systems

1. Any assessment system should be fit for its purposes and clearly aligned to intended learning outcomes.

2. The principles and procedures of an assessment system should be stated clearly, so that the responsibilities of staff, and the rights and responsibilities of students are identified.

3. Staff are expected to take professional responsibility to ensure that assessment tasks are both formative and summative to enhance the quality of learning, and facilitate the allocation of valid grades.

4. Departments should make arrangements for the moderation of assessment components contributing substantially to the final grade relating to a student’s achievement in a course, to ensure that the assessment tasks are aligned to course intended learning outcomes, and to the criteria for achievement.

5. Students have the right to know in advance the specifications of any assessment system affecting them.

6. Assessment tasks should be coordinated to minimise workload and stress for students and staff.

7. Assessment procedures and tasks and arrangements for student assessment should be regularly and systematically reviewed.

Assessment and Learning

8. Assessment should be based on the ability of the student to meet the declared intended learning outcomes of the course.

9. The objectives and details of assessment requirements should be given to students at the beginning of the course.

10. The time allotted to complete assessment tasks should ensure that the workload is manageable.

11. During a course students should have opportunities to improve their performance through work that provides for practice, and through prompt and adequate feedback.

12. Assessments takes various forms such as practical exercises and tests, projects or assignments, problems, essays or oral presentations. The form(s) of assessment chosen should give a valid measure of how well the student has achieved the intended learning outcomes being assessed. Where an examination is held, it should assess the intended learning outcomes of the course.

13. Where the final grade is derived from several components, the components should be weighted according to the importance of the learning outcomes being assessed.

14. When sets of marks from assessment components are being combined, care should be taken to ensure that the final grade is in accordance with the weighting intended.

108 109 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

Section F — Guidelines for Assigning Course Grades Grading represents an effort to blend an academic judgment about the level of student achievement relative to the learning outcomes of the course and the relevant external academic standard. It is based on previously agreed grading criteria.

Section G — Guidelines for External Academic Advisors These guidelines are drawn from the University’s experience with the External Examiner system. Departments that wish to benchmark the academic standard of their courses and programmes and student work by employing External Academic Advisors may find them of value. 1. Departments should ensure that their External Advisors have the essential experience relating to the assessment of candidates for similar awards in other universities of international standing, and that they have the qualifications necessary to lend credibility to the advice they offer to the department.

Role of External Academic Advisors

2. While the principal role of External Academic Advisors is to assist the University to maintain the international standard of its awards, departments are encouraged to seek their advice on broader academic issues.

3. External Advisors may be asked to advise on assessment tasks and strategics related to a course, moderate examination papers, scripts and other written work of students, and tender advice before decisions are made by an Assessment Panel. This is particularly the case where hands- on involvement as members of an assessment team is a requirement imposed by professional bodies. However, External Advisors are normally invited to comment on assessment decisions after Assessment Panels have completed their work, on the understanding that the decisions of properly constituted Assessment Panels are final.

Work of External Academic Advisors

4. Departments should establish a plan of work for the Advisors to cover: the courses to be reviewed over their period of appointment; arrangements for the review of the relevant materials, teaching and learning activities, and assessment tasks, and the timing and objectives of visits to the University.

5. External Advisors should sample an appropriate range of students’ work which may include examination scripts for any course under review, selected from the range of student grades. Where coursework is a major component of assessment, a similar sample of coursework should be reviewed by prior co-ordination between the Advisor and the Department.

6. For any courses selected for review, the External Academic Advisors should consider whether:

(a) Assessment arrangements validly address intended learning outcomes and allow for a reasonable judgment to be made about the performance of students;

(b) Students are required to achieve an appropriate academic level in the assessed coursework and examinations for the course;

(c) Assessed work requires students to marshal the range of information and its application, and display the technical and other skills identified as learning outcomes for a course;

108 109 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

(d) Assessed work relates to the course outcomes; and

(e) Student work has been carefully and competently graded.

7. In their calibration of student work, Advisors are asked to pay special attention to the boundary between pass and fail grades, and to the calibration of the distinction between grades at the upper end, B and A, and the lower end, F and D. If the University is able to set these basic boundaries in line with external standards, it can rely on internal moderation to maintain finer grades.

8. While the programme approval process and mechanisms for programme review ensure that the syllabus of any course is pitched at the right academic level, where External Advisors feel that this is not the case, they are encouraged to include this finding in their reports.

Briefing of External Academic Advisors

9. External Academic Advisors should be adequately briefed. Department concerned should make available:

(a) Senate policy and guidelines relating to the assessment of students;

(b) The Academic Regulations;

(d) Reports of previous External Academic Advisors, with any response to these reports.

Report

10. The report of the Advisors should have two sections. Section 1 provides a signed assurance that the academic standard of assessment in the area of the Advisor’s responsibility is being maintained. This assurance may be unqualified, or qualified. When a qualified assurance is provided, Advisors are asked to note these qualifications. Section 2 is a free format report. The basis for this section is a checklist of issues. This checklist is provided to the Advisors when they are appointed.

11. Departments should arrange for the reports of Advisors to be forwarded to the relevant Dean, at the end of each academic year.

12. Reports from the Advisors are essential inputs for staff seeking to maintain the quality and level of assessment of courses. Reports should therefore be made widely available to staff, and action should be taken as appropriate on the advice of the Advisors to bring the academic standard of awards into line with international standards.

Section H — Decisions on Academic Awards 1. Examination Boards are required to classify awards with regard to, but not necessarily in conformity with students’ CGPA.

2. It is the responsibility of the Examination Board to ensure that academic awards reflect students’ achievement of the intended learning outcomes. If however, an Examination Board finds any anomaly or inconsistency in the award classification decisions, it should

110 111 Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education Principles, Policies, and Practices for Quality Education

make an appropriate recommendation for consideration by the relevant Committee and Faculty Board.

3. Decisions on classification of awards should comply with the relevant Academic Regulation (AR 12.11). Award classifications are as follows:

PGC/PGD/ Master’s Degree AD/D/HD Bachelor’s Degree with Honours

Distinction First class Credit Upper Second class Pass Lower Second class Third class Pass (without Honours)

110 111 Programmes of Study and Academic Departments Programmes

Types of Programmes The University’s programmes range from associate degree to doctoral level studies in a wide variety of disciplines leading to the following awards: Associate Degree: AA/ABA/AEng/ASc/ ASocSc/ALS, Bachelor’s Degree: BA/BBA/BEng/BSc/BSocSc/LLB, Postgraduate Certificate (PGC), Postgraduate Diploma (PGD), Juris Doctor (JD), Master’s Degree: LLM/MA/MBA/MFA/ MSc/MSocSc, Master of Philosophy (MPhil), Doctor of Business Administration (DBA), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Doctor of Engineering (EngD). The three Colleges: Business, Humanities and Social Sciences, Science and Engineering, School of Creative Media and School of Law, offer bachelor’s degree and postgraduate studies while School of Energy and Environment currently only offers postgraduate degree programmes. The School of Creative Media, Division of Building Science and Technology and the Community College of City University offer associate degree programmes. Information of programme requirements and details are available at the Programmes and Courses website.

Programmes under the Credit Unit Structure Under the credit unit system, students must earn the minimum number of credit units for the award being sought and must take designated courses to meet the core requirements of their programme. In addition, all undergraduate students must meet certain University requirements to earn their award, including: a language requirement; a requirement to take courses outside the students’ main area of study; and a Chinese Civilisation requirement. The academic regulations for University awards are set out in more detail in section “Regulations” of the University Calendar. The full requirements for awards are indicated under each programme in the following section. Note that requirements for awards may depend on students’ year of entry, and in special circumstances, some requirements may be waived.

112 The Structure of University Academic Programmes

1. The academic curriculum of the University is organised into Programmes. Each Programme leads to a named award of the University. Students are admitted to a Programme and remain enrolled on this Programme unless they are permitted to change their enrolment.

Credit Units 2. Programmes are organised on the basis of credit units defined in terms of student work, with one credit unit being earned for about forty-to-fifty hours of student work. In most cases, this notional student work input can be related to contact hours. The “rules of thumb” approved by Senate are that one lecture hour, or one tutorial hour per week for a Semester requires student work sufficient to earn one credit unit; and one laboratory hour per week for a Semester requires student work sufficient to earn one-half a credit unit. It is understood that Programme Committees may wish to deviate from these rules of thumb, where they do not reflect the actual circumstances of the Programme.

Number of Credit Units for University Awards 3. Senate has established a minimum number of credit units that students are required to earn for each award. These minimums are as follows: Bachelor’s Degree 90 credit units Associate Degree 66 credit units Master’s Degree 30 credit units Postgraduate Diploma 24 credit units Postgraduate Certificate 12 credit units

4. No maximum for credit units required has been set, but Programme designers should be aware that full-time students are expected to carry no more than a maximum credit unit load per Semester of eighteen units.

Courses 5. The units of instruction at the University and the component parts of Programmes are “courses”. Courses must be designed to earn whole credit units. To facilitate scheduling and therefore flexibility for students, departments are urged as far as possible to offer courses that earn multiples of three credit units.

6. Each course must be assigned a “level” to indicate the degree of academic difficulty associated with the course. Unless explicit approval is given, students may not meet programme requirements by studying courses at a level different than their programme level (i.e. P, B, or A). The levels approved by Senate are as follows: Postgraduate: P5; and P6 Bachelor’s Degree: B2; B3; and B4 Associate Degree: A1; and A2

113 The Structure of University Academic Programmes The Structure of University Academic Programmes

7. Equivalent courses may be defined for programmes where there is sufficient overlap in content that students may use any equivalent course to meet programme requirements, recover a failure, or improve a course grade. Where necessary, substitute courses may be assigned to enable students to complete programme requirements.

8. Not all courses are designed for specific Programmes and may be suitable for students irrespective of the Programmes on which they are registered.

9. Courses should be designed so that assessment can be completed in the Semester in which the course is completed. Formal written examinations should have a duration of 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, or 3 hours.

Structure of Programmes 10. The basic building blocks of Programme design are:

Required Courses: Courses that students must pass to earn the award. Programme Electives: Courses “elected” by students from defined sets of courses prescribed for the Programme. Free Electives: Courses chosen by students from any available course, not specifically excluded by the Programme and for which they have the prerequisites.

11. Vertical structure can be introduced into a Programme by the use of prerequisites, or precursors. Prerequisites are requirements that must be fulfilled before a student is able to register in a particular course. Note that this might include educational or other achievements gained before entry to the University, e.g. a particular A level, or relevant work experience. Precursors to courses are not requirements, but students are advised to complete precursors before taking such courses.

12. While setting prerequisites will be necessary in some cases, once established they make it more difficult for students to progress through their studies. Prerequisites should therefore be used with discretion.

Programmes Leading to Bachelor’s Degrees and Associate Degrees 13. Programmes leading to Bachelor’s Degrees and Associate Degrees must include:

13.1 A structured, integrated core—The structured core for Bachelor’s Degrees must comprise at least sixty credit units, and for Associate Degrees at least forty-eight credit units. The core element of the Programme is normally based on a discipline, or professional area of specialisation. The core provides for a planned, objective-oriented educational experience that requires students to progress from introductory to advanced material and to gain an in-depth appreciation of their specialist area, or areas.

13.2 Opportunities for studies “out-of-discipline”—Undergraduate Programmes must be designed to permit students to study courses outside their area of specialism. Programmes leading to Bachelor’s Degrees must include at least nine credit units earned “out-of- discipline”. Programmes leading to Associate Degrees must include at least six credit units earned out-of-discipline.

114 115 The Structure of University Academic Programmes The Structure of University Academic Programmes

The definition of courses that lie outside a discipline area is the responsibility of the department offering the Programme, but is subject to approval by the relevant College Board. Programmes may, if necessary, restrict the choice of students’ out-of-discipline studies to courses approved for the Programme.

13.3 University Language Requirement—Senate requires that all Undergraduate Programmes include six credit units earned in fulfilment of the University language requirement. The language requirements must be met either through studies to meet the University English attainment requirement, or through study of language courses approved by Senate to meet the requirement.

13.4 Chinese Civilisation Requirement—All Bachelor’s Degree Programmes must include six credit units earned in courses in Chinese Civilisation.

14. Exemption from the University Course Requirements—College Boards may at their discretion exempt students in part-time, evening programmes from the University’s language, Chinese Civilisation and out-of-discipline requirements.

15. College Requirement—Requirements may be established by College Boards for the awards offered under the Board. Programme designers must incorporate these requirements in Programmes.

16. Free Electives—Senate encourages Programme designers to allow students sufficient room in their studies for courses freely chosen from those on offer in the University. Opportunities to develop one’s own interests and talents should be an integral part of any education.

17. Minors—Programmes may allow students to select minors as part of their programme of study. Minors comprise a structured group of courses totaling at least 15 credit units, allowing for significant exposure to a subject area or topic of professional interest. Minors will be noted on student transcripts.

A virtual self-help centre is also available online to students who are ready to prepare themselves to navigate the confusing labyrinth of job-hunting, job-relating, and self-development in the real world. Acting as a bridge, the virtual centre will also be the place where prospective employers can learn about their prospective employees and naturally, vice-versa.

It is the goal and mission of CAIO to perfect these services so that students whom we work with will be able to deploy fully what they have learnt in the university, to find suitable employment, and to serve the community at large.

CityU Postgraduate Association CityU Postgraduate Association (CUPA) is an official postgraduate student body in the University, with its membership covering both research and taught postgraduate students.

These exchange agreements have resulted in very fruitful joint research projects, exchange of teaching and research staff and students, joint organisation of academic conferences and many other mutually beneficial scholarly activities between CityU and the partner institutions. With the goal of internationalization high on the University’s academic agenda, continuous efforts will be devoted to enhance existing relationships and to establish new links with diverse partners in the globe to broaden the international perspective of our students and to enrich the ambience of our campus.

They have the right to stand for election as officers of the Union who are responsible for various aspects of student life. Part-time students, graduates and staff of the University may also apply for associate membership. Also, exchange students may apply for temporary membership.

The main objectives of the Union are to foster a spirit of unity, independence and democracy as well as to promote and safeguard members’ general rights and welfare. In addition, it aims at improving the relationship among its members and with those of other tertiary institutions and the entire community.

The ultimate authority of the Students’ Union rests on its members who can exercise their power through General Meeting and General Polling. A noteworthy division of the Union is the University Affairs Committee, the channel through which students can present their views to the University.

The Students’ Union, through organising regular social functions, provides a focal point for students’ social life in the University. Every year it organises a series of orientation programmes at the beginning of Semester A for freshmen to familiarise themselves with the various aspects of the Union and student life.
